Default RE: Cutting Monokote

ORIGINAL: jeff1127

Has anyone tried a rotary cutter as found in the sewing section at any craft store? I've used them for cutting fabric,leather and even wrapping paper. The small diameter ones cut tight radii and the larger ones cut very straight if used with a good metal rule.

They go through ultracote nice and easy too.
I've considered it, but wasn't sure how it would keep a sharp edge. I go through X-acto blades like shelled peanuts when covering. I couldn't afford that many rotary blades...
